morning everyone. im new to this forum as i have only just bought my mazda 3 mps. i used to own a couple of mr2 turbos and a couple of twin turbo supra's.. i bought the mps straight from a a main dealer and so far im loving the new buy. i got an amazing deal with her and the mazda dealer in orpington kent couldnt do more for me. im looking at a remap and lowering the mazda for the firsts mods. anyone recommend anything? looking forward to hopefully meeting a few members at meets etc. chris p.s how do you post pictures lol

Hi &  Eibach or H&R are your best bet for Springs. If you are down Kent way then BBR is probably your nearest recommended tuning specialist. Or go down the VersaTuner route which allows you to map yourself or you can post logs up here and a couple of guys can help you out.

Hello and aboard. I'd do the little mods before the map first, i.e SRI&TIP, new re-circulation valve, de-cat, then map. Other wise you'll be going back to re tweak your map. BBR are best for near you too.

It's always a special and rare occurrence when I spot one on the road. But I guess that's cos I am only a social driver and even then I'm rarely out in her!!

That's a very very clean example there, I like it. Yeah there are a few down south, can't think off top of my head, DJJUT is that way I think? He knows his onions from his shallots that lad!
